Do not look now, but the Yotes believe they can contend for the Summit League title. The 1-0 Yotes come to Brookings with more new faces. Dickerson, Mooney, Burch-Manning, Hurst, and Tyler Flack will likely be the starters today. They will not look like a David Boots team. There should not be any question if both teams want to impose their will on each other. The Yotes throttled the Mavericks at home 86-69 and it was not really that close. They shot 10-18 beyond the arc. The Yotes are averaging 20 shots from 3 point and averaging 32.2%. The Jackrabbits are currently allowing 32.8 3 point shots at 38% "efficiency". This could be an ongoing concern for the Jackrabbits as the opposition find this opening. The Jackrabbits started 0-2(on the road) 2 years ago. They finished 12-4 in the conference.. It might make the road a bit steeper to start 0-2 at home. 10 more free throws did not move the needle against the bison. The Jackrabbits need to improve the defense today and get that first win for the next home winning streak. Happy New Year! Go Jacks!!

Coyotes should be favored to win, but the favorites don't always win.

The best way to stave off a meltdown is to lower your expectations. It's way cheaper than drugs.Originally posted by slosho View PostIf you think nobody cares about you, try missing a couple of payments.

Ive lowered mine since Wed night. And if we get a 15-20 pt lead today, i totally expect us to blow it again. Not sure what kind of lead will make me feel comfortable. Maybe 30Comment

Re: GDT: Jackrabbits vs Coyotes The Corn Showdown continues
Another stat to watch concerning the zone defense. The 1-3-1 should create some chaos in the opponents offensive motion. This in turn creates more turnovers. The yotes averge 12 turnovers per contest. Any turnover number greater than 15 ought to be considered successful. A related stat, points off turnover, should favor the Jackrabbits. The past 7 games do not reinforce that notion. Of course the UNI game skewed the number. Throw that game out and the Jackrabbits garnered 5 extra points for 6 games. I am not real sharp about the zone defense, but I am trying to find the positive things to watch evolve. Go Jacks!!

Re: GDT: Jackrabbits vs Coyotes The Corn Showdown continues
I know many of you are scratching your head over TJ's playing zone defense, but if you truly watch your team play, and how they play, you would understand it. You have without a doubt the best big man in the Summit with Daum. But you may have the worst guards in the Summit as well. When you play man to man, as you did early in the year, Daum has a big tendency to get into foul trouble. Not rapping him, just making an honest assessment. He's the best offensive player in the league, but defensively he's not. If I remember correctly, he only has maybe 8 blocks this year, and this is a young man that has a wing span of over 7'.
My my bet is TJ has to play zone to keep Daum on the floor. Quite frankly, you'll more than likely lose most games if he doesn't get at least 34 minutes...maybe more. He's that good.Comment
